As Patrick is no Alpinist, the nearest I have got to bagging hills in the last two days is going up to two grads (castles) built on top of strategic hilltops - one in Ljubljana and another on the banks of lake Bled.












Day one we sauntered around the streets of Ljubljana until it started to rain. On the second day we circumnavigated lake Bled in the rain, mainly. With a brief visit to the bee-keeping museum - the Cebelarski muzej - in Radovljica.
